“Without doubt, the foremost band for decades has been the One O'Clock Lab Band at the University of North Texas. Through its many incarnations and under various leaders, they have demonstrated the highest qualities of musicianship imaginable, plus a willingness to balance their big band tradition with creative exploration. Astounding ensemble work, insightful interpretations of the arrangements, imaginative writing, and above all, a loving attention to musicality . . . these people play beautifully.” PeopleWritingHas BeensPlayBigsAttentionQualityLeaderCreativeDoubtBalanceBandHighestTraditionUniversityVariousDecadesClockInterpretationPlusWillingnessExplorationInsightfulTexasArrangementsImaginativeIncarnationLabsEnsembleMusicianshipMusicality Author:Gary Burton
